1153 Waters Rd, Chesapeake, VA 23322

Why this home stands out

What sets 1153 Waters Road apart is its combination of a mid-century bones and genuine breathing room. The 1951 build means solid construction from an era when rooms were sized for real living, not just square-footage math. Two parks sit within a mile. The USCG Finance Center Chesapeake is about 10 minutes away, and the NSA Northwest Annex is roughly 17. That kind of access without city-center noise is a real trade.

GREAT BRIDGE and the Chesapeake real estate market

Waters Road runs through a low-key residential pocket of Chesapeake where lots tend to be generous and traffic stays light. The street has a settled, unhurried feel — the kind of block that anchors homes for sale in 23322 with roots rather than flash. Housing here skews toward single-family homes from the mid-twentieth century, many of them well-maintained and owner-occupied for decades. Tree cover is generous, and the pace is noticeably slower than the city's busier corridors. Chesapeake itself is Virginia's second-largest city by land area, which means you get suburban calm without sacrificing access. The Great Bridge area nearby has its own commercial center with grocery stores, pharmacies, and local restaurants. Interstate 64 and Route 168 connect you to Norfolk, Virginia Beach, and the Outer Banks without a long surface-street slog. City services in Chesapeake are well-regarded, and the overall cost of living tracks below the regional average.

What's nearby

Stonegate Park is just 0.3 miles from the front door — an easy walk for an afternoon outside. Cheshire Forest Park adds another green option at 0.7 miles, giving the immediate area a genuinely park-rich feel. The Great Bridge commercial corridor is a short drive and covers the everyday basics: grocery runs, coffee, and quick dining. Pharmacies and medical offices cluster along Battlefield Boulevard, roughly five to ten minutes out. For a larger retail run, Greenbrier Mall and its surrounding shops are accessible without getting on the highway.
